Viernes después de Acción de Gracias

📣 Notas para viajeros

The United States is highly diverse, ranging from vast natural areas to major urban centers (e.g., Manhattan, Chicago). Attractions include natural wonders (Yellowstone, Alaska, Southwest canyons, Pacific Northwest) and various coastal regions (Florida, Hawaii, Southern California).

• Expect heavy traffic and large crowds at airports, roads, and public transport during the period between Thanksgiving and January 1.
• While government offices and banks may close during federal holidays, private businesses may or may not observe the holiday, varying by state and locality.
• If a federal holiday falls on a weekend, it is typically observed on the nearest weekday, though minor closures or festivities may occur on the original date.
• Plan for and allow extra time and patience when navigating public services and travel during major holiday periods.
• When dining, check for available seating; sharing tables may be acceptable in informal settings. Standard table manners are generally European-influenced: refrain from slurping or loud conversation, and wait until all diners are served before eating. When invited to a private home, bringing a small gift (e.g., wine, flowers) for the host is considered courteous. For shared meals, confirm contribution options with the host. To leave restaurant leftovers, specifically request the remainder 'to go' from the server.
